ARTISTS UP will host a free session to connect and inform Asian, Asian American, and Asian Pacific Islander artists throughout Seattle, King County, and Washington. The mixer is designed to “share best practices through peer learning and build connections between artists and funders and demystify funding programs and processes.”
Artists creating in dance, literature, media, music, theater, visual, and public art are welcome to the event on Monday, June 9, at Asian Counseling and Referral Service (ACRS), located at 3639 Martin Luther King Jr. Way in Seattle. The program will begin at 5:30 p.m. with an art tour, followed by an informational and networking exchange from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Creative activities for school-aged kids and language interpreters will be available. Register at artistsup.org by June 1. (end)
